    The Sony Movies channels on Freeview have been renamed e.g. “Great! movies action” and it looks **** in the TV guide. I’m quite annoyed. Being quite annoyed is more serious because gay

    My Freeview signal is dropping out at the same time as my fibre broadband decides 1.6Mbps is acceptable. I know what it is. It’s Ann Widdecombe’s black-ops squirrels out for revenge 🐿

  • frankensteirer yoo hoo (@frankensteirer) reported

    @Ofcom @mother_pukka @NicenNeetz we have to lose freeview channels to make other companies richer ee offerings was poor as it was losing more channels more repeats why are regulators doing this? If its not you letting bt overpopulate openreach lines it's other regulators letting energy prices disgustingly soar

    @grandwaz000 @BBCNews They are slowly killing off broadcast tv you are correct just look at the 10 freeview tv channels that are due to be shut down to make way for 5G.

  • scott_peac Scott Peacock (@scott_peac) reported

    @Ozcan1945 @karl1953howman Unfortunely there is no more capacity left on freeview for this channel to return. The reason for the closure of Forces tv, were down to cost, Arqiva who owns the transmitters, need to encourage broadcasters to switchover from DVB T to DVB T 2 and bring cost down.

    @LeoLem54321 @SkyNews You need to be covered by a TV Licence if you watch live TV on any channel or TV service - such as ITV Hub, All 4, YouTube, Sky, Virgin, BT, Freeview, Amazon Prime Video, Now TV - on any device.

    Never knew retuning your Freeview TV or set top box would be so much of an hassle sometimes I just can't be bothered doing it..

  • dave1966uk dave1966uk 🇪🇺 🇬🇧 (@dave1966uk) reported

    @FreeviewTV Now next to useless. Lost CBS Drama to RealityXtra which is not available now in my area. Freeview says use Internet - newsflash - not everyone in the countryside has useable Internet. BT quoted me £143,000 .... No mobile signal either.

    @Sparkypatrick Yes I saw that, Talk Talk the cheapest, never looked at Plusnet, just walked up to the precinct and set up new account, new contract, fed up with Freeview content so now at least got all the Sky channels plus catch up and record.

    @eljonesuk *faints* P.S. Sorry to see FreeSports close on Freeview (even though they always cut out your stuff on the rugby league replays!)
